This is lovely. Thank you, Mo. I'm my worst critic, I am sure. Thank you for shedding light on how to move past that self-defeating thinking.

Beautiful writing Mo.

We definitely need to meet ourselves where we are as opposed to where we want to be. I always struggled with the self improvement genre and never seemed to be able to take action from the books/events that I encountered. I got stuck in my head. It seems that self-awareness goes hand-in-hand with self-love. Know thyself. Once we know our self we can find a way to climb the ladder to that no self of the presence. Through that door the compassion of our heart waits to walk us home. Thank you for these principles on the path to authentic being.

Thanks, Jamie. I think self-help is self-defeating as we always tell ourselves that we are broken and need fixing. And you're right, it's all about compassion and starting with loving ourselves.
